The Bunnyman Massacre (2014)

How sad is this?

To all those who have watched it: I hope you enjoyed it as much as I do.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

Have an appreciation for horror with shades of thriller, slasher can be done well as well. So despite hearing a lot of negativity, 'The Bunnyman Massacre's' premise did really intrigue. Plus the cover was an attention-grabbing one. Really wanted to like it and for it to not be another waste of decent potential. Watching it, unfortunately 'The Bunnyman Massacre' turned out to be exactly that...a waste of decent potential and with exactly the same flaws as the first 'Bunnyman'. Not how to execute an intriguing idea. It's not irredeemably awful by any stretch, there is one good thing. Sadly eclipsed by the numerous things 'The Bunnyman Massacre' gets catastrophically wrong. Some unintentional humour that was just cheesy and irritating, the attempts at seriousness felt misplaced and the incoherence of the editing and the dialogue make it very difficult to take it seriously and the horror elements were predictable, not scary and too tame, no matter how much gratuitous blood effects it threw in. Lets get the good things out of the way first. The best thing about 'The Bunnyman Massacre' is the villain's look, it is great. So cool and menacing, not goofy at all.Uniformly the acting ranges from very bad to truly terrible, lots of histrionics and an equal amount of phoning in. Their cringe-worthy, unintentionally silly dialogue (one deserves a prize if they succeed in not bursting out laughing when they're not meant to, that is a challenge), annoying characters with stupid and illogical decision-making and behaviours and indifferent direction gave them no favours. Neither did the story, which is paper thin and much of it doesn't make any sense, with scenes that bear no relevance. There is no tension or suspense here, no surprises, no creativity, no wit and the only thing that is scary is the look of the villain and the scare factor ends there. The kills are un-creative, instead of biting the nails one is shrugging their shoulders, and the whole horror atmosphere feels both tame and overdone (so much gratuity here) and leans towards being dumb.'The Bunnyman Massacre' is an eyesore visually. With the lighting and camera work, it seemed to striving for the showing off or experimenting with supposedly arty to them feel but instead it comes off amateurish and nauseating. The editing is incoherent. Cannot remember the music, other than its over-bearing intrusiveness.Overall, not irredeemable but very bad. 2/10 Bethany Cox

This movie stars out with kids being slaughtered on a school bus by a giant killer bunny. Yeah, that about covers what type of film this is. If you don't have a dark sarcastic sense of humor, this this film isn't the film for you. I appreciated that the filmmakers went there, and had come fun with the genre.

Bunnyman is back, and it's even more disturbing in a good way. Right from the get go we see Bunnyman means business this time around. I read some reviews saying the movie was disturbing and depraved, and in my book that's what you want in a horror film. You want a film to push the boundaries of what a viewer feels is safe and sacred. Horror movies aren't supposed to play it safe ! This film goes to places other films are scared to and that's why I love it so much. If you want safe horror, go watch Goosebumps. If you want a horror film that turns things on it's head, check out BUNNYMAN 2 ! That opening scene is worth the price of admission alone.

Clearly superior to the original Bunnyman in every way, but retains what did work in the original film. The sequel beautifully amps up the atmosphere, with an almost painter like feel to the photography. The halting, jolting score is a stand out as well. And though the shock of the film's ending was probably ruined by anyone one who has seen the trailer, those coming to the film with a fresh perspective will certainly enjoy the film even more. The acting is all over the place, with the girls having rather shallow roles. However that may be the intent of the filmmakers, for the true antagonist of the film is Bunnyman and the redneck character Joe (whom also returns from the first film).
